The Great Escape - Douglas Poynter

Tony Hoskins delved into the archives to dig out the life story of Douglas Poynter. He was to attempt, and very nearly succeeded in making an evasion from Occupied Norway, before eventually being captured and taken Prisoner of War. One of only two Fleet Air Arm officers involved in the Great Escape, he went on to have an interesting post-war career as well.
